Core / Platform
Twin runtime, NGSI-LD (Orion-LD), WebGL shell (CesiumJS), API gateway, host UI, and orchestration — the base for self-hosted NKZ.
Repository →Open standard · AgTech digital twins
3D digital twins for agriculture. Open stack. FIWARE-native.
NKZ (Nekazari) is an open platform for operational twins: WebGL visualization, NGSI-LD data, and pluggable domains—from LiDAR and Sentinel to MQTT, ROS 2, and ISOBUS.
Community Edition (AGPLv3). Enterprise Edition: managed SaaS, SLAs, dedicated deployments.
Built on standards you already run in production
Core and plugins, not a monolith
Polyrepo layout: a stable core for twin runtime, NGSI-LD context, and orchestration. Domains ship as separate repositories under github.com/nkz-os—LiDAR (.laz ingest), plant health (Sentinel via rio-tiler), IoT (MQTT), robotics (ROS 2, Zenoh), machinery (ISOBUS), agrivoltaics, ERP (Odoo), and team chat (Mattermost). Upgrade or replace a module without forking the platform.
From heavy rasters to 3D tiles
Designed for large GeoTIFF stacks and time series: backend services on Kubernetes, asynchronous jobs via Redis/Celery, and a WebGL client (CesiumJS) for smooth navigation over real farm geometries—not a slideshow of static PNGs.
NGSI-LD context, CEP rules, real devices
Context data follows FIWARE NGSI-LD (Orion-LD). Complex event processing for agronomic and machine rules. Field devices integrate over MQTT; fleets and implements over ISOBUS where applicable.
Modules
Optional capabilities you enable when they match your operation. Public modules live under the nkz-os GitHub organization.
